Preparing and Loading Dishes

Dish Preparation

Scrape away large pieces of food, bones, pits, toothpicks,
etc. The continuous filtered wash system will remove
remaining food particles. Burned-on foods should be
loosened before loading. Empty liquids from glasses and
cups.
Foods such as mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar, lemon juice
and tomato based products may cause discoloration of
stainless steel and plastics if allowed to sit for a long
period of time. Unless the dishwasher is to be operated at
once, it is best to rinse off these food soils.

The top rack is designed for flexibility in loading a wide
variety of items including cups, glasses, stemware, small
plates, bowls, etc.
Load glasses in top rack. Damage may occur if placed in
bottom rack.
Load plastic items in top rack only. Melting may occur if
placed in bottom rack.
Load items with open ends facing down for better
cleaning and draining.
Damage may occur if delicate items touch each other
during dishwasher operation.
Long-handled knives and utensils can be placed in top
rack.

to block rotation of middle spray arm.

stemware holder. They can be used to load two levels of
cups, juice glasses, and other short items. Stagger items on
